If anyonereally cares about this he or she should just kill the uuid table entirely. We can simple walk a list of mounted xfs filesystems and check their uuids. The VFS even keeps a list already, which we probably could use if we are careful. Bonus points for implementing this in a way so that other filesystems could share the code. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
